infoRouter allows you to set Folder Rules. The rules that you can set are:

Disallow New Folders This rule will disallow the creation of new folders in this folder. Use this rule if you wish to preserve the structure of your folder tree. Disallow Folder Deletes This rule will disallow the deletion of folders in this folder. You can use this rule to override security settings, so that even if someone has the ability to delete the folder, this rule will protect the folder. Note: A user with Full Control rights can change folder rules. Disallow Document Checkouts This rule will disallow the check out of documents in this folder. Use this rule when you wish to prevent users from being able to edit the documents in a folder. Note: Documents that were already checked out before this rule is activated are not affected. Disallow Document Check In This rule will disallow the Check In of documents in this folder. Use this rule when you wish to prevent the content of the folder from being changed. Users who have documents checked out will not be able to check them in until the rule is cleared. Disallow Document Deletes This rule will disallow the deletion of documents in this folder. Disallow New Documents This rule will disallow the creation of new documents in this folder. File Type Restrictions You may set a list of allowed file extensions. This will prevent documents with other file extensions from being created in this folder.

Important Inheritance Note

If Folder Rules are defined in a folder, subsequently created sub-folders will automatically inherit these rules. However, if you define folder rules on a folder that contains sub-folders, the rules you set up will not automatically get copied down to sub-folders. To do this, you may define folder rules in a given folder and copy these rules to all sub-folders by selecting the "Include subfolder" option.
